HTTP compression is a capability that can be built into web servers and web clients to
make better use of available bandwidth, and provide greater transmission speeds between
both.
There are a variety of places where you can set up HTTP compression.
- You can set up the Web services client to send and receive compressed requests. See Compression and a Web services client.
- You can enable compression for the Web server. Refer to your Web server documentation for
details.
- You can enable compression in the Genero Application Server. Compression is enabled by default
in $FGLASDIR/etc/imt.cfg. Refer to the Genero Application Server User
Guide for more information.
- You can set up the Web services server to send and receive compressed requests. See Compression and a Web services server.
